This guide takes you from a new account to your first API request.
1. Get your API key
Sign up and generate an API key from your dashboard. Keep it secret: the key authorizes publishing on your connected accounts.
2. Connect a platform
From the dashboard, connect the social accounts you want to publish to. Each connection grants InvisibleAPI the scopes it needs to publish and read analytics on your behalf.
3. Make your first request
Send your first request with your API key in the Authorization header. Start with a dry run: it validates the caption, media format, and scopes without publishing anything.
4. Automate
Once the dry run passes, you can:
- Publish directly from your own app or script
- Wire InvisibleAPI into n8n, Make, or Zapier flows
- Point an AI agent at the InvisibleAPI MCP server and let it publish autonomously
